Here’s my article on Verena Mei for LAist.

Verena is the first race car driver in the world running on alternative fuel competing head-to-head with gas-powered cars.  Verena converted her Formula Drift car to run on clean-burning E85 fuel and won the Redline time attack series.

Next up, I will be interviewing Marc Davis, a developmental driver for Joe Gibbs racing who is part of NASCAR’s diversity program.
